Tourist Tip: If you're ever in Pigeon Forge, TN be sure to catch CARBO'S POLICE MUSEUM where you can see Buford Pusser's CAR OF DEATH! I've seen it! They have plenty of other Pusser memorabilia as well, including his WALLET OF DEATH, and, for sale in the gift shop, reproductions of the bat he used to whoop up on moonshiner butt.

I live on the west side of TN and we use to go to pigeon forge, knoxville, chatanooga and a few other tourist-esque places when i was a kid. I can't remember if it was pigeon forge or gatlinburg, but once my dad took me to Ripley's Museum before it burnt. I hear that they rebuilt it after it burned but is not as cool as it was back in the day...

Granted, it's Steve Carrell's movie. But from previews I've seen, it looks like The Rock might have some funny moments. One scene Rock's talking to his boss about a memo, and he goes: "Is this your stapler?" Boss says "Yeah." Rock then staples the memo to the boss's head.

I have no complaints about the Rock, just about the remakes, sequels of Walking Tall. They seem to blow it every time. And I don't know about that guy's complaint about the real Buford being a racist, I doubt it. The original had such an effect on me I bought books about the real Buford Pusser. If you want to read a great book about what Pusser was dealing with, read "The State Line Mob," by W. R. Morris. Great book about what he cleaned up. And lastly, you have to see the original ... GREAT MOVIE.

As I read through this thread I found myself amazed and, on more than one occassion, curious and very thankful. Thankful I've never had the misfortune to see Napoleon Dynamite, Fast and The Furious, The Pacifier, and whatever the movie about that Buford fellow was.

OTOH this thread also left me scratching my head wonder: "Who the $#@! is J.R. Bookwalter?"

First link a Google search turned up was for Tempe video. IIRC they are (or were) an outfit that's like Asylum, only so ultra low budget they barely have a SFX budget. Curious I checked the IMDB listing for the director. That's an entire filmography of annoyingly bad DTV movies!

I wouldn't say IDIOCRACY was the "most annoying" movie I ever saw but it was the most blatantly un-funny attempt to do PC "retarded humor" I've ever seen. It could have been redeemed if it had a moral, alas it was just lame.

PEARL HARBOR was a cloying harlequin romance set during the opening salvo that brough American into WWII. It goes beyond annoying. The entire storyline is in poor taste and that's all I'll say about it.

And as for ROCKY HORROR, you don't go to see that for the movie you go for the experience.

However I would like to add that you're all wrong. The most annoying movie of all time, ever, is TEKNOLUST. A special cauldron waits in Hell to eternally boil the skin off the bones of those responsible for inflicting this confused -ism masquerading as a work of genre fiction on the unsuspecting public. Yes, their skin shall be boiled off and their skeleton forced- by demons wielding flails made from the leather of the skin of politicians and the bones of greedy corporate con artists like Madoff- to wander the swamp of the fifth circle as maggots roil up out of the muck to form new flesh; flesh which will then be boiled off again.

Bratz the movie. God that movie is irritating with it's so-called messages about life and high school, Jon Voight continued the downward spiral of his career by appearing in this mess of a movie as the high school principal.
